My personal preference would be for slightly smaller in the frame, but still a lovely shot with a great background and superb feather detail.

Nice portrait although a bit big in the frame for my tastes. I like the detail on the bird and that subtle yellow is really nice.

Hi Phil,

A top class shot, great detail! I agree a little large in the frame, but no big deal.

Cheers,

Lewis.

Nice muted colours and excellent detail. We've had the first of these beginning to appear around here over the last week or so.

A lovely looking bird Phil, balanced well with the size of 'perch'. :wink:

I do feel that it's bordering on the maximum of sharpening, but again, this is a personal thing.

It's a corker of an image Phil, supreme detail and yes, just a touch smaller in the frame for me too.
